Every morning when I was a child, my father would bound up the stairs and at the top he would say (without fail) “YES! Today is going to be a GREAT DAY!” That used to drive me crazy. Now, I get it.
See, my Dad had a reason to believe it would be a great day – he knew it to be true because he had a clearly defined purpose for his day, his week, his month, his year AND his life! In other words, he knew exactly WHY he did what he did.
The lesson here, I’ve learned, is that it’s not enough to know what you do, or how to do it. Success lies in clearly defining our “why,” and the size of your WHY is directly proportional to the size of you success.
So what ‘drives’ me? What’s my motivation? Our society is SICKER today than it was 10/25/50 years ago. Tens of thousands of people are DYING from the pandemic of chronic illness and the age of onset for these diseases is growing younger and younger. This widespread LACK OF HEALTH is primarily due to misinformed lifestyle choices (how we eat, move and think), however well-intentioned.
I feel a STRONG sense of urgency to educate those within my community that this doesn’t have to be a reality for them or their family. What I know to be true is that we all have the inner potential to be extraordinarily healthy. My intention is to inspire, empower and educate my community to take control of their health by choosing to live their Life By Design.
Specifically, my motivation is to inspire 1000 families to raise their children BY Design so that the next generation is truly healthier than the last.
